EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Mr. Plane (Chad Valley) The Round Game of Happy Families, Mr. Plane the Carpenter" by an unknown photographer, transports us back to the early 1910s. The image showcases a man, identified as Mr. Plane, deeply engrossed in his work as a carpenter. Dressed in a worn apron and holding a saw, he is surrounded by piles of freshly cut timber and sawdust in his workshop. The round game of 'Happy Families' is visible on the table behind him, suggesting a moment of respite from his laborious work. The Round Game of Happy Families was a popular parlor game during the 19th and early 20th centuries. The objective of the game was to collect sets of 'happy families' by trading cards with other players. This photograph, therefore, offers a unique blend of work and leisure, showcasing the skills and trades of the past, while also hinting at the importance of family and social connections. Mr. Plane, with his focused expression and determined posture, embodies the hardworking spirit of the era. His workshop, filled with the aroma of freshly sawn wood and the sound of sawing, represents the essence of craftsmanship and the pride that came with a day's work. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to reflect on the value of skill, trade, and the importance of balancing work and play in our lives.
